Technical Details
Description
Our Cote de Nuits-Villages encompasses the villages of Premeaux-Prissey, Comblanchien and Corgoloin just south of Nuits-Saint-Georges. The vineyards benefit from east-facing hill-slopes which act as a sun-trap to create maximum ripeness in the grapes. The complex soil composition of these villages includes varying proportions of marl and shale clays which produce wines of great character and charm. Maison Louis Latour's Cote de Nuits Villages is an excellent introduction to the wines of the Cote de Nuits.

Tasting notes
With a nice ruby-red colour, our Côte-de-Nuits Villages 2014 offers an elegant nose of red berries, such as wild strawberry. The mouth is round and the tannins are supple. With red berries and black fruits notes, it is an aromatic and gourmet wine.
